The Mask of Scents allows Link to track the odor of [[mushroom]]s with ease. These mushrooms can in turn be brought to [[Koume and Kotake|Kotake]] at the [[Magic Hags' Potion Shop]] to obtain [[Blue Potion]]. Mushrooms can be found in various places, but the most interesting is in the [[Stock Pot Inn]]; if Link visits the room on the second floor where the [[Gorman Troupe]] is staying, he can use the Mask of Scents to find a mushroom hidden within a pair of boxers on one of the beds.

The Mask of Scents has the same color as Link's skin; when worn, Link looks like a humanoid pig, rather than a human wearing a pig mask. In addition, when worn, the mask replaces all of Link's shouts and grunts with pig noises and his idle stance with a hunched-over, "sniffing" animation.
